Sold for $320....

[isolator42]

Is that really all that's inside one of these? No boards or assemblies missing? Wow, it really is mostly empty, eh?

Also, am I missing something?
This is a boomer in pieces, confirmed as not powering up, with mods carried out & non-original speakers.
...& $320 is really a good price?

Someone educate me

Very rare box for the USA. Usually sell for $500+ and in full working order they can hit $1,000 . It's the biggest 1 piece boombox ever made.


Worth it? Yes, for that price it is fair for buyer and seller. I know who bought it and they are more than capable of fixing the issues or gutting it to make the MEANEST boomer ever!



Here is my Dyansty HT-959 "wheelie"
Look how big it is in front of my 52" LCD TV :

Can someone weigh one? I'm curious now.

 

[blu_fuz]

26.2 lbs. or 11.88 Kg

with no batteries or cassettes in the storage area.


OR

30.2 lbs with the batteries and the 10 cassettes in the storage area.

Still waiting for someone to do a full comparo with a J1..

That is actually pretty heavy. Not sure where it comes from though, aside from the 10" speakers and the dual tape decks (which many other boomboxes have).

Sorry to dig up an old post - but I'd like to see this too! How do they compare size wise and performance wise?
